This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No.16/288,901, filed on Feb. 28, 2019, which is a continuation of U.S.application Ser. No. 15/817,589, filed on Nov. 20, 2017, which is acontinuation of PCT International Application No. PCT/EP2015/061418which has an International filing date of May 22, 2015, the entirecontents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a passenger transport system having aplurality of passenger transporters as e.g. elevators, escalators,moving walks, moving ramps etc. controlled by a transport systemcontrol. The passenger transport system has a lot of passenger transportsystem components which are distributed over the building as e.g.illumination, elevator doors, drive motors, voice actuation, displays,ventilation etc. The passenger transport system further comprises atleast one parameter memory configured to store at least one parameter orparameter set for the operation of at least one of said transport systemcomponents. Usually, the passenger transport system of this kind hasoperation parameters stored for almost any of the different transportsystem components which meet the requirements of most passengers in anoptimized manner but on a statistical base. It can therefore happen thatoperational parameters of the transport system components, as e.g. dooropening time, are not adapted for certain passengers which fall out ofthis statistic frame. Accordingly, an aged person might have trouble toget into an allocated elevator if the door opening time is too short.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is therefore object of the invention to create a passenger transportsystem of the above mentioned type which is better suited to meetspecific demands of individual users.

The object of the invention is solved with a passenger transport systemaccording to claim 1. Preferred embodiments are subject-matter of thedependent claims. Some inventive embodiments are also discussed in thedescriptive section of the present application as well as in thefigures. The inventive content may also consist of several separateinventions, especially if the invention is considered in the light ofexpressions or implicit subtasks or from the point of view of advantagesachieved. In this case, some of the attributes contained in the claimsbelow may be superfluous from the point of view of separate inventiveconcepts. In addition, it can be stated that at least some of thedependent claims can in at least some situations be deemed to beinventive in their own right.

According to the invention, the transport system, particularly thetransport system control for the plurality of passenger transporterscomprises at least one first wireless interface, preferably in thevicinity of at least one of the transport system components, which firstinterface is configured to input data regarding at least one parameteror parameter set for the operation of at least one transport systemcomponent. On the other hand, the passenger transport system comprisesmobile devices carried by transport system users which mobile devicescommunicate wirelessly with the first interface, which communication isbased on a short range transmission as e.g. NFC, RFID, Bluetooth. Themobile device is prompted by the communication with the interface totransmit data regarding the parameter for the transport systemcomponent. This means that the mobile device is configured to beprompted by the first interface to transmit data regarding the parameteror parameter set of the correlated transport system component. Thisenables an operation parameter or operation parameter set of the atleast one transport system component to be influenced by datatransmitted by the mobile device to meet individual requirements of theuser. Accordingly, the invention allows the customizing of a passengersystem interaction with a user to individual user requirements.

The setting of the parameters may be location-dependent or global. Thus,a parameter as e.g. the door-opening time, maybe set differently fordifferent doors (e.g. basement and destination floor) or to be the samefor all doors.

The data transmitted from the mobile device to the first interface canbe of different nature. In a very simple alternative, this data may besimple ID data of the mobile device which ID data is linked in a usermodule of the transport system control to a certain parameter orparameter set for the transport system component in question. Thus, theID of the mobile device could e.g. be allocated to a “handicapped”people group in which case by simply reading the ID of the mobiledevice, the transport system control is able to set for the allocatedelevator to “handicapped” standard, e.g. the door parameters of anelevator door to longer door opening times and slower door speeds,activation of audio signalling of allocated elevators and trip data aswell as slower acceleration and/or speed of elevator/escalator drive.

Another possibility is to issue via the mobile device selection datawhich selection data specifies one parameter or parameter set out ofseveral stored in connection with the transport system control,particularly in a memory of the control panel of the transport systemcontrol.

A third possibility is to store parameters or parameter sets on themobile device itself so that the mobile device directly issues theoperational or operational parameter of the transport system componentvia the interface to the transport system control to control theoperation of the corresponding transport system component. In any case,the operation of components of the transport system component isaffected by data which is communicated from the mobile device to thewireless interface, which is located in the vicinity of the correlatedtransport system component so that the operation parameter or parameterset of said component is affected by the data from the mobile device.

These passenger transport components can for example be the doorcontroller of an elevator, the elevator or escalator motor whereby thecorresponding operation parameters are motor speed and motoracceleration, illumination, input and/or output components as operatingpanels, displays, push-buttons, touch-screens, loudspeakers, microphonesetc. Another transport system component could be a ventilator orillumination in an elevator car or even a pollution filter locatedthere. Further related transport system components could be illuminationin the passenger transport system lobby, e.g. elevator lobby or evenillumination in different parts of a building or environment if thepassenger transport system is also connected a guide system for guidingthe user to a specified location in the building or environment. Theparameters are preferably user-related but can also be time-related inwhich case the transport system component may be an allocation controlof an elevator so that different traffic conditions at the differenttimes of the day could be met via adjusting the corresponding callallocation parameters. A passenger transport component could also be anelevator allocation control module in an elevator group control, inwhich case not only the allocation parameters could be changed but alsothe operation mode of the allocation control for example from continuouscall allocation to destination call allocation and vice versa.

The transport system control may be an elevator (group) control, anescalator (group) control, or a mixed common control for these bothtypes of passenger transport systems.

In case the passenger transport system is also correlated with an accesssystem which may e.g. happen in hotels, the parameters communicated bythe mobile device can also be access parameters of the hardware of theaccess system, as. e.g. admitted floors in an elevator group, electricdoor locks, ID recognition means etc. Thus, the electric door locks ofhotel rooms could for example be provided with wireless interfaces alsoworking in a short range transmission technology, so that the mobiledevice may be able to open the door lock without interaction of theuser, if he is in close proximity to an access door.

In connection with a guide and access system the invention could alsowork as follows: The passenger enters the building with his smartphonealready registered as I/O means of the passenger transport system of thebuilding and to the related guide and access system. When entering theelevator lobby of the base floor his smartphone interacts with thewireless interface to automatically issue a destination call. Furtherwith the interaction the operating parameters of components of theelevator group which are relevant for the individual travel are set toe.g. the user group to which the user belongs. Maybe the user hasselected on his smartphone a theme for displays and illumination, whichwill then be used by all display and illumination components of theelevator group as well as by the components of the guide system duringthe trip of the passenger through the building to his destination. Thus,the user is driven to the correct destination floor and is guided by theillumination components of a guide system to the correct door. When theuser reaches the door, the door opens automatically when the user getsnear enough, e.g. within a radius of 1 to 2 m, to a third short rangewireless interface interacting with the door lock. This has also theadvantage that the user who sometimes is hampered by luggage does nothave to insert an ID card into the door lock but the door opensautomatically so that he can immediately enter the room. This offers anoptimum of individual service to his destination.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the parameter memory may belocated in a control panel of the transport system control. Of course,the parameter memory may also or alternatively be located in the mobiledevice.

The mobile device can be a special mobile device handed over to theusers of the passenger transport system or may simply be a smartphone towhich an application (App) has been uploaded which provides to thesmartphone the functionality of a user input/output device of thepassenger transport system and optionally of a correlated guide systemand optionally of a correlated access system.

The application may be downloaded to the smartphone via the sameinterface which are used to transmit an operation parameter or parameterset from the mobile device to the passenger transport control or thetransport component directly or it may be a second separate interfacewhich is for example only located at certain locations in theenvironment of the passenger transport system. This second interfacesare only designed to upload application data to a smartphone if thesmartphone gets in the short transmission range of the second wirelessinterface and the user accepts the download of the App.

Preferably, when downloading an App via the first or second interface,some parameters handled by the App may be location-depend or default (orfixed) value. If for example the user downloads the application in hishome floor, that floor may be set as users home floor.

Preferably, the transport system control comprises a user moduleconfigured to link a parameter or parameter set to a certain user oruser group of the passenger transport system. This ensures thetransmission of only ID data of the mobile device to allocate thetransport system component a certain parameter or parameter set which islinked to the user or user group correlated with the ID of said mobiledevice.

Generally, with the invention only one parameter of a component can beset with the present invention or a whole set of parameters. Further thetransmission via the interface can lead to the setting of parameters atseveral system components at the same time or in a succession (e.g.guide illumination in the destination is only activated after elevatorhas reached the destination floor).

In a preferred embodiment of this technical solution, the user modulecomprises for each user or user group a corresponding route in thepassenger transport system or in the environment in which the passengertransport system is embedded, e.g. a mall, an office or residentialbuilding, a hotel or an airport whereby at least some, preferably allinterface controlled distributed transport system components along saidroute are controlled in line with the parameter or parameter setselected via the communication between the interface and the mobiledevice. In this case, the passenger transport system may also beconnected with a guide system. Accordingly, for example floorilluminations could be activated along the route of the user, or aspecial guiding light may be activated along his path to thisdestination. Via this illumination, he can be guided directly to hisdestination, for example a hotel room.

If the parameter or parameter set transmitted by the mobile device orselected via the mobile device is user dependent or user groupdependent, then a collision might occur when several users of thepassenger transport system get into the vicinity of the wirelessinterface at the same time. In this case, the passenger transport systempreferably comprises a colliding module to select an appropriateoperating mode for this situation. The colliding module then e.g. eithersets the parameters in the overlapping route area of the differentmobile devices (users) according to a priority parameter of the user oruser group or alternatively does not change the parameters of thepassenger transport component at all in the overlapping route area ifseveral different user or user groups with the same priority are presentin the transmission range of the correlated interface. Simply said, inthis case, the passenger transport system does not change any parametersif different users or user groups with the same priority are located ina vicinity of the interface but the parameters are selected according toa priority if users or user groups with a different priority are presentin the transmission area of the interface. This technology providesreasonable handling of possible colliding parameter settings in case thepassenger transport system is quite crowded.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention it is also possible toactivate the wireless interface or to allow a parameter change of acomponent based on the communication between the wireless interface andthe mobile device only at certain times or at certain locations of thepassenger transport system.

Usually, in the base floor elevator lobby many users are present whichmakes it nearly impossible to change parameters in said area. Anyway,usually at other floors (destination floors), the number of usersessentially decreases so that in these destination floors the parametersmaybe set based on the communication between the interface and themobile devices at the base floor according to the requirements of thedifferent users. This means that the use of the parameter settinginfluenced by the wireless interface may be limited to certain locationsof the passenger transport system. The other option which can berealized at the same time is to activate this user-based parameterchange only at certain times, usually at times when there is not anyheavy traffic in the passenger transport system. During heavy traffictimes, the passenger transport system is quite crowded so that theparameter change according to the interaction with mobile devices may bedeactivated. But also at these times the inventive system may beactivated only for certain user groups having a high priority, e.g.handicapped people, emergency use or VIP people.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the mobile device comprisesa display for displaying the parameters or parameter sets of thecorrelated passenger transport component to the user and input means forselecting a parameter or parameter set out of these. If this technologyis for example considered with respect to lightning, certain colours orthemes for the lightning could for example be selected by the passengersby using a menu on the display of their mobile devices. Usually, asmartphone has a touch screen which serves at the same time as display(output device) as well as push button (input device) for selecting acertain parameter set out of the displayed parameter sets or themes. Theselected parameters or parameter sets may then be stored in a memory ofthe mobile device and may be communicated to the interface when cominginto its short range transmission area.

As it has been mentioned above, the parameters may refer to theactivation (on/off) or colour of illumination or to the display ofcertain themes, to the activation of sound for informing the passengerof transport system activity, e.g. destination floors or allocatedelevators. The parameters may also be door opening times or door closingvelocity, elevator car acceleration, elevator car speed, escalatoracceleration, escalator speed, ventilation of elevator car, activationof pollution filters in an elevator car. If the passenger transportsystem is also correlated with a guide system and with an access systemin the environment, the parameters can also include illuminationactivity and/or colour in different areas of the environment as well asunlocking of electric door locks in the environment.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the wireless interface is abidirectional interface which is for example able to transmit parameterdata to the mobile device for selection by the mobile device user.

In case a second interface for the transfer of the App to a smartphoneis used, the second interface is preferably a transponder, preferably aBluetooth® transponder, which technology is easy to realize.

Preferably, the interface or the transport system control comprises adetection circuit configured to sense the existence of a mobile devicewithin its transmission range. The detection of the existence couldautomatically lead to the sending of a signal which initiates the mobiledevice to transmit data to the interface referring to the selection of acertain parameter or parameter set of at least one transport systemcomponent.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the mobile device does notonly transmit data relating to the selection of a certain parameter orparameter set of a transport passenger component, but also destinationdata for the passenger transport system and/or for the environment whereit is located so that the mobile device could at the same time be usedas a means to output a destination to a guide system of the environmentof the transport system.

The mobile device may also carry a certain ID which is correlated withdefined access rights to areas of the passenger transport system or itsenvironment. In this connection, the mobile device can also be used as ameans in an access system connected with the passenger transport system.The access right does not only relate to certain accessible floors of anelevator but also the unlocking of an electric door lock in an area ofthe environment, e.g. a hotel room.

Therefore, the invention combines in an advantageous manner differentfunctions of a passenger transport system, of a guide system as well asof an access system of an environment in one technical solution.

It is apparent for the skilled person that the above-mentionedembodiments can be combined with each other arbitrarily.

FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of the interaction between a systemaccording to FIG. 1 and a smartphone operating as I/O interface for thesystem.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

FIG. 1 shows a map of a residential building 10 having a passengertransport system embodied as elevator group 12 comprising four elevators14, 16, 18, 20. The different elevators 14, 16, 18, 20 comprise theirown car illumination components 22 as well as a loudspeaker 24 forgiving audible information to passengers, for example to blindpassengers. In the elevator lobby 21 an indication panel 26 is locatedin the front of each elevator 14, 16, 18, 20, which indication panel isconfigured to show data regarding the allocation of elevator car orregarding the arrival or departure of elevator cars. This indicationpanel 26 may also show destination floors which are comprised in theroute of the respective elevators 14, 16, 18, 20. Furthermore, in theelevator lobby 21 in front of the elevators 14, 16, 18, 20 as well as incorridors 28, 30, 32, 34 of the building 10, illumination elements 36,50 are located. In the elevator lobby also a destination operating panelmay be located which is per se known in destination call systems.

Further, in the elevator lobby 21, a first wireless interface 38 islocated which is configured to interact with a mobile device (see FIG.2) within a short wireless transmission range to set parameters of theelevator group 12 or of the illumination elements 36 of the building orof an electric lock in an access door 32, which electric lock isprovided with a third interface 44 to retrieve access data from themobile device 40.

Furthermore, in the elevator lobby 21 a second interface 46 is located,which is preferably a Bluetooth transponder, configured to upload an Appto a smartphone of a user staying in the short range transmission areaof the second wireless interface. The App enables the smartphone 40 toact as I/O device of the elevator group 12 as well as of the correlatedguide system 36, 50 as well as of the correlated access system 42, 44.

The illumination elements 36, 50 in the corridors 28, 30, 32, 34 can beselectively controlled to guide a passenger from the elevator lobby 21to an access door 42 in the residential building 10. This can forexample be realized by selectively activating only the illuminationelements 50 between the elevator lobby 21 and the access door 42 whilethe other illumination elements 36 remain switched of or shine with adifferent colour or theme.

FIG. 2 shows the interaction of a smartphone 40 having uploaded an Appas to act as an IO interface, i.e. as a mobile device of the passengertransport system 12 and guiding system 36, 50 and access system 42, 44as shown in FIG. 1. The smartphone has a touchscreen 60 which fordisplay and input of data.

The smartphone 40 communicates via a short range communication protocol,preferably Bluetooth® with the first interface 38 which is connected toan elevator group control 52 of the elevator group 12. The elevatorgroup control 52 comprises a memory 54 for operation parameters of thedifferent components of the elevator group and guide system and accesssystem as well as a user module 56 which correlates certain operationparameters of components of the elevator group or guide system or accesssystem with certain users or user groups. Furthermore, the elevatorgroup control 52 might be connected (not necessarily) with the secondinterface 46 which can also be configured as a stand-alone unit toupload an App to a smartphone to enable the smartphone to act as amobile device of the elevator group and/or guide system and/or accesssystem.

Finally, a third interface 44 is connected with a door lock 58 of theaccess door 42. The third interface is also able to perform short rangecommunication with the smartphone 40 in connection with the guide andaccess system according to FIG. 1. The third interface maybe aBluetooth®-transponder.

The smartphone's touch screen 60 is according to FIG. 2a able to displaya map 64 of the destination floor of the building 10, in which map theroute between the elevator group 12 and the user's access door 42 may beindicated. The smartphone also may have a GPS system to enable thesmartphone to indicate the current position of the user on this route.

The smartphone's touch screen 60 is according to FIG. 2b able to displaya selection menu 62 enabling the user to select parameters or parametersets, eventually in connection with certain display themes, as they arecommonly used in smartphone or computer displays.

The function of the system shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is describedhereinafter in detail:

During a first visit of a user to the building 10, the user gets into arange of the second interface 46 located in the elevator lobby 21. Theuser carries a smartphone 40 and is then prompted by the secondinterface to upload an App which configures the smartphone as aninput/output device of the elevator group 12 and guide system 36, 50 andaccess system 42, 44, 58. After starting the App on the smartphone 40,the user is presented a selection menu 62 (FIG. 2b ) for selectingcertain user-specific settings as e.g. default departure floor, defaultdestination floor, illumination parameters, e.g. themes and visualdisplay during the ride of the passenger in the building, as well ascertain options, e.g. whether or not the smartphone shall also be usedas a guide means in the building 10 and as an access means for gainingaccess into certain areas of the building 10 which are closed by accessdoors 42. Optionally, the settings made by the user by pushing certainbuttons in the selection menu 62, the settings may be checked aftertransmission between the smartphone 40 and the first wireless interface38 by the elevator group control 12 which is also connected with anaccess database 66 of the building 10. After the settings of the uservia the selection menu 62 are confirmed by the elevator group control52, the smartphone 40 acts as an input/output device to set parametersof related elevator components 24, 22, 26 as well as to controlillumination elements 36, 50 of the building 10 and to provide access toaccess doors 42 in the building.

If e.g. the user has selected the theme “winter” this means that theillumination elements 36, 50 in the building 10 as well as theillumination car components 22 of the elevator group 12 will indicateuser and guide data with blue snowy coloured display symbols.

When the user enters the elevator lobby 21 with already configuredsmartphone 40 in the base floor of the building 10 he gets into theshort transmission range of the first interface 38 which prompts thesmartphone 40 to issue data, e.g. the ID of the user. Via this ID, theelevator group control 52 sets all illumination of the elevator group 12and of the illumination elements 36, 50 in the building 10 to the themeselected by the user. Further, the allocation control of the elevatorgroup control 52 automatically allocates a destination call with thecurrent departure floor and the set destination floor whereupon one 16of the four elevators 14, 16, 18, 20 is allocated to his automatic callwhich is displayed on the touch screen 60 of the smartphone 40 as wellas on the indication panel 26 above the allocated elevator 16. Theelevator group control does not only get the route data of the user inthe elevator group 12 but also operating parameters of the elevatorgroup. Thus, the indication panel 26 above the allocated elevator showsfor example the colour of the selected theme of the user which colour isalso used in the illumination component 22 of the elevator car.Furthermore, the ID of the smartphone 40 is correlated in the usermodule 56 of the elevator group control with a certain user group. Ifthe user group is for example “blind passengers” particular signallingfor visually impaired passengers 24 is activated in the allocatedelevator 16, which includes acoustic signalling via the loudspeakers 24in the elevator and via a loudspeaker 27 in the lobby 21. Thus, he canbe informed where his allocated elevator is located, the door openingtime can be prolonged and during the trip the passenger can beacoustically informed when his destination floor has been achieved. Whenthe passenger exits on the destination floor, he can also beacoustically guides when aside of the illumination elements acousticguide elements are provided.

For guiding purposes the illumination elements 50 corresponding to hispreset route can be illuminated in his theme colour, e.g. blue, whichleads him directly to the access door 42 of his room in the building 10.Instead or additionally to the illumination elements 50, also acousticnotification elements could be used which give for example certainsignals which may easily be acknowledged by visually impaired persons tobelong to his selected route. After having arrived in front of hisaccess door 42, the electric door lock 58 of his access door 42 can beautomatically released when the mobile phone 40 comes into the shorttransmission range of the third interface 44 which is connected with theelectric door lock 58. The door lock 58 can obtain ID or access dataeither centrally via a building control or the elevator group control 52or via transmission between the smartphone 40 and the third interface44. Accordingly, the third interface 44 can also be used to transmitaccess data to the electric door lock 58.

It is clear that the selected operating parameters may be eithermanually selected or selected by the fact that the user belongs to acertain user group defined in the user module 56 of the elevator groupcontrol 52. Accordingly, when the user is handicapped, the door openingtimes of the elevator door as well as the door speed may be reduced.Simultaneously, the travel velocity of the elevator (and of possibleescalators or moving walks) as well as its acceleration may be reduced.

The present invention therefore offers a wide variety of possibilitiesto adjust different components of a passenger transport system, as e.g.an elevator group to certain individual needs of a user as well as toguide a user through an environment, e.g. a building 10 up to his finaldestination in the building.

The invention is not restricted to the described embodiment but may bevaried within the scope of the appended patent claims.
